The recoil of a cannon is probably familiar to anyone who has watched pirate movies. This is a classic problem in momentum conservation. Consider a wheeled, 500 kg cannon firing a 2 kg cannonball horizontally from a ship. The ball leaves the cannon traveling at 200 m/s. At what speed does the cannon recoil as a result?

Arunner is training for an upcoming marathon by running around a 100-m-diameter circular track at constant speed. let a coordinate system have its origin at the center of the circle with the x-axis pointing east and the y-axis north. the runner starts at (x, y) = (50 m, 0 m) and runs 2.5 times around the track in a clockwise direction.

Uranium has two naturally occurring isotopes. 238u has a natural abundance of 99.3% and 235u has an abundance of 0.7%. it is the rarer 235u that is needed for nuclear reactors. the isotopes are separated by forming uranium hexafluoride uf6, which is a gas, then allowing it to diffuse through a series of porous membranes. 235uf6 has a slightly larger rms speed than 238uf6 and diffuses slightly faster. many repetitions of this procedure gradually separate the two isotopes. what is the ratio of the rms speed of 235uf6 to that of 238uf6? express your answer to five significant figures.
